Please find below the answer:
Abscisic acid (ABA) acts as an antagonist to gibberellic acid(GA) in the following ways:
- ABA inhibits the growth of plants while GA promotes it.
- ABA causes seeds, buds, tubers, etc. to go into a dormant stage. GA helps the plant to overcome seed dormancy.
- ABA inhibits RNA and protein synthesis while GA promotes their synthesis.
- ABA promotes the abscission of flowers, leaf senescence, and closure of stomata. GA promotes fruit development, prevents leaf senescence, and promotes the opening of stomata.
Regards.
